Therapeutic Silencing of MicroRNA-122 in Primates with Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection

Abstract

Anti-MicroRNA Antiviral: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs found in eukaryotes and viruses. They are critical regulators of a wide range of cellular processes. The highly conserved miRNA miR-122 is required for infection by hepatitis C virus (HCV), a leading cause of liver disease in humans. Present HCV treatment regimes can have serious side effects and are effective in only 50% of cases. In order to try to tackle HCV infection, Lanford et al. (p. 198 , published online 3 December) targeted miR-122 using a complementary locked nucleic acid (LNA) oligonucleotide. Treatment of chimpanzees infected by HCV with the LNA antagonist resulted in a long-term reduction of disease symptoms without the concomitant appearance of resistant strains of the virus.

  • Anti-microRNA antisense oligonucleotides efficiently blocked microRNA function, thereby alleviating diseases in rodents and nonhuman primates.

    “Recently, some reports have shown that an anti-microRNA antisense oligonucleotide efficiently blocked the function of the microRNA, thereby alleviating diseases in rodents and nonhuman primates (29,30).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
